I have just finished a water cooling set-up which consists of FX60 CPU 2 x BFG 7900GTX.
Now before installing the watercooling everything was working just fine, but since doing so when I boot I get a graphically corrupted boot screen and when windows tries to load it just fails and reboots sometimes, others screen just goes blank.
I used the Danger Den NV78 GPU blocks and a TDX CPU Block.
I know the problem is the graphics cards as I have installed them in my other PC and I get the same problem, but even if I try them on their own I get exactly the same problem on both of them - what could I have done to cause this - this is like £800 of hardware I may just have wrecked!!
I have searched forums and can only think of two possible things:
1) I used AS5 on the memory and some people say this can cause problems, although other say they use it and it works fine - I have even removed all of the AS5 and used ceramique instead but still no joy.
2) Crushed the GPU / Memory - I'm not new to this and I did not over tighten the thumb screws so I do not think this is the problem either.
I cannot think of anything else that can be causing the problem, but would really appreciate the advice of the pro's on this forum.
Thanks
